Nerf a bloke with a turret whilst you have a flying superman with 3 types of grenades to use lol makes sense in bizzaro world!
@emerson1975
Well than we can agree that it would be best to remove both (together with the other 8) and bring back the classes that make Battlefield Battlefield!
Well, the feedback loop for the Specialists should start any minute now I guess, so we can all tell them just that. 😉

Yep I agree but it’s not gonna happen so I can only comment on what we have now.
All they have done is made boris a complete non entity now because the sentry is all he had and it’s been nerfed into oblivion and this barely makes him better than a bog standard soldier whilst sundance is some sort of superhero.

Hi all,
We're reviewing if the T1 requirements for Boris need adjusting. We'll continue monitoring your feedback on the changes to the SG-36 Sentry Gun that went live in Update 0.4.1. - Anobix4 years agoSeasoned Ace

I think most of us fully understand that T1 and such requirements are supposed to take a bit to unlock for any specialist. It can just be far more difficult with some than others, and when the only method for someone to gain mastery with a specialist is made even more complicated/slower, it can be frustrating!

We'll continue monitoring your feedback on the changes to the SG-36 Sentry Gun that went live in Update 0.4.1.The sentry has been broken from day one because for many of us, it almost always exploded immediately after placing it down. This made getting damage with it nearly impossible. After months of complaining and you guys denying that their was even a problem with the turret, you finally admitted you were looking into it exploding. But in the very same update, you nerfed the absolute hell out of it and even though it doesn't explode now, getting damage points feels once again impossible. SIXTY THOUSAND? Maybe 20,000 MAX. The tiers for the turret are by far the hardest achieve of any specialist. I've been playing since the game has been out, roughly 250 hours into the game and I don't have even 16k damage achieved. If you guys just actually played the game you're supposed to be fixing, you'd understand many of our frustrations as a community.

WE CAN'T PLAY THE GAME THE WAY IT IS WITH THIS HORRIBLE CAP. GET RID OF THIS FREAKING 'TEMPORARY MEASURE' ALREADY
- 4 years ago@dc12O3 People cried about the turret am afraid and dice literally capitulated to them!
Now the kd heroes can run around without a care in the world and not even bother with any teamwork!
Boris is about as useful as a glass hammer now. - ATFGunr4 years agoLegend@emerson1975 As the turret is tied to damage, not deaths, yet the turret won’t lock on and fires at all before being destroyed makes the completion of Boris impossible. There is zero reason to play as Boris.

It would help a lot if the T1 requirements of other assets that are way harder to be reached than on Launch could also be reviewed.
Like for example the Bolte which has both weaker weapons and fewer chances to be available or even desirable to use over tanks now. I am sure that the statistics will show that almost nobody uses it now.

Do not worry. With S1 there will be most likely XP booster packs available and with just another 50 USD/EUR/whatever you can speed up the process and get the T1 thingy much faster.
And I bet they will even communicate the introduction of XP boosters as something GOOD and something the 'community' asked for.
- UP_Hawxxeye4 years agoLegend@DuaneDibbley The cynical part of myself does expect T1 shortcuts at some point. It is the only way I can explain why they did the solo restrictions
I hope I am mistaken - 4 years ago@ATFGunr Nobody is playing as boris anymore due to the complete lack of turrets i now see in the game.
He’s literally now just a bot. - ATFGunr4 years agoLegend@emerson1975 Not even, a bot we’d see in game. Guess I’ll be stalled out just short of T2 until they buff it again
- UP_Hawxxeye4 years agoLegend@emerson1975 He was already unpopular until the youtubers etc made everyone aware of how they can make the turret useful.
The thing about the turret is that it gets exponentially stronger the more people play Boris in the same area.
So Boris was already pretty bad if enough people did not use him - 4 years ago
@Straatford87You nerfed the turret to much. You should have just made it less lethal. Instead you made it less lethal, decreased its health, and took away it's highlighting of the enemy. All of these people are complaining that killed them to much. I'm fine with making it less lethal. I never used it for the kills, I used it as an alarm system and a way to slow down the enemy when they were attacking a point.
- 4 years ago@UP_Hawxxeye Which YouTubers? None of the main battlefield YouTubers used him. Which YouTubers even make videos about battlefield anymore? Most have stopped playing this game and gone back to a different battlefield game or warzone

Reminds me of people that Cried about ap mines in battlefield v.
How can these things be overpowered when it takes YOU to actually set it off lol.
Maybe people should take a little more care and actually look at their surroundings rather than just looking as far as the end of their nose!
- 4 years ago
I stopped using Boris since the last update, only one tier to go to unlock T1 but i feel it's taking too long now. I'll revisit him if it's not too grindy to unlock the final tier for him in the future.
- UP_Hawxxeye4 years agoLegend@HARLEMnycity Well the main BF youtubers were mostly playing other games the last few months but at I seen at least 2-3 of the more minor ones I get recomendations for to talk about how OP the turret and the ranger are and now they need to be nerfed.
They do not need to play Boris, just by saying something is OP, more people will try it. - 4 years ago@Straatford87 if you wanted to make it less lethal - fine, you did. But then give it more health and maybe decrease cool down so it is not lethal but at least an annoyance and I can put it more often and be more mobile with it.

- 4 years ago
@PsubondIt’s called working with a team…odd concept now lost within the battlefield community.
So you think it should be easy to solo 4 or 5 turrets 😂😂😂 why bother having them in the game then?A ten year old killzone 2 that was littered with flying turrets and stationary ones took teamwork to deal with and nobody cried about it!
- 4 years ago@Psubond if there are 4 turrets then there are 4 or more players. So you won't be soloing it anyway. It takes team effort to set it up so it should take team effort to overcome it.

- Psubond4 years agoLegend@emerson1975 please quote where i said i should be able to solo 4 or 5 turrets
- 4 years ago@Psubond Sure. But at the same time I think with every nerf there should be something to compensate it. Give it more health? Add anything else to Boris T1 requirement and maybe something to his passive perks like better repair tool? My biggest compain not even the turret but T1 being the same. It's like just double the amount of projectiles for Irish T1 for no reason. Or make sentinel shoot only 50% projectiles. It is exaggeration ofc but you get the idea.
